City-specific data is essential to ensure the accuracy of community health needs. The maps were developed specifically for a large hospital in Florida however, this methodology can be utilized by other hospitals across the US. Tableau was used for developing the dashboards and geographically mapping the analyzed data. All of the six health outcomes were standardized, rescaled, and weighted within the final composite score. County-specific health outcomes were Obesity, Dental, and Mental Health. Hospital-specific health outcomes were Stroke, Diabetes, and Coronary Heart Disease. The first dashboard is a hospital-specific composite dashboard, and the second is a comparison dashboard of health outcomes identified by both the hospital and the county’s community health needs assessment focused on neighborhood-level disparities. Multiple data sources from the 500 Cities Project databases were analyzed, and two online dashboards were created. The objective of this paper is to describe the methods used to develop geographic information systems (GIS) dashboard tool and explain how it can assist nonprofit hospitals to identify priority neighborhoods.
